Featured Member – Cooke

December 31, 2008 |  By

Cooke never realized while walking into class on the first day of the 5th grade, that his entire life would change.  Fitted in the only thing his mother could afford at the time, a pair of Payless sneakers, he walked into a classroom of peers who immediately started taking shots. From that embarrassment came determination and Cooke began hustling. He cut grass, shoveled snow, raked leaves, made ringtones; basically did whatever he could to make some money. Once he had a few dollars in his pocket, Cooke began collecting. The one pair of shoes he absolutely loves is the Jordan 11s. Since he couldn’t afford them when they first came out, he stacked his chips, stood in line for 2 hours and picked up the 11/12 package. His main love is Nikes, but can also be seen in New Balance and reppin’ his city in a pair of DC’s. Cooke’s love of sneakers is not just a trend, it is a lifestyle.

“Somtimes it’s not about having the biggest collection, but the actual love of kicks and the support from others…just like me.”
